In the UK this is the ideal week to put out
a bird nesting
box. As these are easily available already,
mostly
in the form of small
boxes with a dark interior, a sloping roof
and an entrance
hole, the opportunity for greater
invention is wide open.
Last year my proposal was for: 10
Sparrows That Live In The
Moon. This year I present: The Tree
Climbing Monkey's
Bum.
This idea takes the form of a small
replica monkey, who's
flexible arms can be wrapped around a
tree branch, or
made to cling unto a suitable spot on a
building or other
structure.
The birds of course nest inside the
monkey, using its
curved tail as a perch, and accessing
their new home by
flying in and out of the hole in its bum.
note - can also be placed on a more
accessible pole and
used to keep bees

A singing monkey's arse, cool.

It would make a very cool birdbox, although I'm a little unsure of the long-term ramifications of training birds to fly up arses. |

//ramifications of training birds to fly up arses// |
|

Heh-heh, you said "ramifications." |
|

There's an old saying, in response to the inane statement "I wonder." It goes like this: |
|
| |
"Don't wonder too hard, or while you're wondering you'll wake up one morning and then you'll have to wonder why the birds have built a nest in your arse." |
|
| |
I guess we've solved that question? |
|
| |
This would be really uncomfortable for the birds if another, dimmer monkey decides to get a little amorous. |

We don't have any indigenous monkeys in
UK, so not a problem here. |
|
| |
I dunno about that. I saw a pair of gorillas in suits outside a nightclub in Brighton. |

Try tuning in to the BBC Parliament channel. There's about 650 of the buggers on show, in their monkey house. |

[+] Well done, as always. |

(+), but only if it flings birds at you as you walk by it. |

Maybe not, but judging by the number of green ring-necked parakeets in my garden, it is only a matter of time. |

C J Langenhoven, the South African writer and parliamentarian, once observed in the SA senate, "Half of the people in this room are monkeys!" |
|
| |
When challenged by the speaker to retract the statement, he responded, "Very well. Half of the people in this room are not monkeys!" |
